2210

Harry Kim's "uncle" Jack pilots a sleeper ship on a deep-space exploration trip to Beta Capricus. The rest of the crew go into stasis, while Jack spends the six months piloting the ship himself. Upon arrival, the "star" is found not to exist and to be only an electromagnetic echo of a distant galaxy. Jack chooses not to wake the rest of the crew before returning, after a further six-month journey, back to Earth. (VOY: "11:59")
